Alice stared back at him. "I am off-duty right now, and have been ever since Clyde came to pick me up this afternoon, right before his car was shot up. And I'm not going to leave him now because in the past several weeks the both of us have been through far too much, including having to deal with dirty cops. So you'll have to excuse me if I say that I am staying."

"Considering how everything seems to have escalated in these past weeks, it is obvious that they way you are running things just isn't good enough anymore. I'm not trying to tell you how to do your jobs but right now you aren't exactly doing much."

"If you did them better then I would have no reason to say anything. The mobs are out of control now. I have been shot and now it seems that Clyde and I are being hunted down. I never imagined that I would be involved in anything like this and now I don't even feel safe at work."
